@Tendey101 @b0gur wait true actually!!! i feel like it’s mainly because of frustration with the state the game is in - like other live service games get constant updates and patches whereas people who are addicted to overwatch don’t get that so they go insane and start doing weird stuff

@CampYea @Daem0nChi3f @OGG1993 Exactly, I have never used GP, but if a game is a 100% online game i wont bother with a physical copy (Overwatch for example) but just because I don’t use GP doesn’t mean ill go about shaming people that want to use the service.

@HeelsAreBetter That is the problem, now people are on overwatch for surprise returns. They’re gonna care less about any storyline and just watch for the shock value. That’s what happened to AEW, when they couldn’t do it every week ratings started to dwindle. HHH needs to keep it special

She got a lil apartment in the town over I forget what it's called, I think just Hanamura IDGAF Overwatch sucks. Anywys, Hanzo falls for her. So does Genji. Problem is, Hanzo is whom gained her eye. IDK why I went with "White woman gains Asian Mans affection" but I did.

It’s very uncomfy to be on this account when not only is Overwatch a dead game now but also it’s **** Blizzard forever so might be a lot of BB spam incoming to fix the algorithm here sorry about that!

@i3utu Bro I was thinking the same thing. My friends and brothers said they would “casually” compete in low-level Overwatch tournaments with me, but… Halo Infinite is too fun (despite all of its issues).

(@MatrixShaman) reported
Now it seems like Overwatch wants to give me the same problem as Apex and Destiny. I choose low graphics settings, but it doesn't look like my graphics are actually running at low settings, they look better. I have no idea if it's something with the games or my computer.

I don't have any problem with dunkey himself but like people will treat his "game criticism" like gospel sometimes. I did not agree with a single point he made on overwatch 2 (which is fine) but so many people love to just puppet his opinions on games

@NoiseTankk Sorry if this has been said Talk to your isp! I used to have this exact issue where everything looked great but I would get kicked from overwatch comp all the time. Blizzard said it was not on their end. Had the tech come out 3 different times and finally it was fixed

(@I_AM_AEZiR) reported
In retrospect, Overwatch's problems were so easy to fix, yet Blizzard's decisions to not at all fix it and instead alter the entire experience to get around it completely killed the game for me. That and what's been going on behind the scenes over there.

Activision Blizzard is ultimately the company behind the likes of the Call of Duty franchise, Crash Bandicoot, Overwatch, Diablo and Candy Crush. Microsoft wants to acquire them for 68.7 billion dollars - or 59.2 billion pounds.

@DizianOW @Kanashii_OW Yeah mikeyy is a textbook of “problems that therapy can fix”, bro spent the last 5 years of his life getting OWL level at overwatch & clearly did not pick up on how to talk to women along the way.

Just backfill the last 40s of an Overwatch match as Cassidy, walked in, got PotG, and then collected the free win. Someone in that match got scammed by a disconnect for sure.

@RS_Art2420 @geoffkeighley Yes if they keep doing it then yes but they are talking about cod specifically and nothing else. That's why there is so much questions around cod and cod only. They never bring up diablo, overwatch, crash, wow, or anything else lol so how would making that 1 game exclusive matter

What is the absolutely most broken, oppressive, frustrating, overpowered piece of **** character you’ve ever had to deal with in any video game? For me, it’s between Bayonetta in Smash 4, or Brigette in Overwatch (back when she launched) Runner up is pre-nerf UI Goku in DBFZ

@PlayOverwatch Make you sure you don't talk in overwatch chat, blizz going crazy with perma ban these days! what a cheap way to deal with the real problem!

Specialists are no longer one-per-squad, so you can now actually play any role freely. The balancing removes basically all traces of meta so easily that the Overwatch team should be ashamed that they couldn’t. Lis was broken on release, but they fixed her faster than usual.

this is the **** i think about since i won at overwatch and never feel like playing anymore. I had an 80% win rate. When you get there you move on to harder problems.

@mars200040 I played Crash and Spyro trilogies but it had nothing to do with Activision since they didnt make the originals anyway. I literally spent a gen avoiding call of duty and only buying Overwatch day 1 and A Destiny bundle of like $10 when they LEFT activision.
